Different Emotions & temporariness

It was 4 pm while I was sitting in office thinking about temporariness of everything, yesterday only a earthquake had shattered many lives in sikkim, few days earlier blasts in Mumbai took place killing and Injuring many. So there was nature and well as humans dictating the terms telling me don’t be sure of anything, it may change any moment.

When we are happy or sad, we tend to attribute whatever is happening to us  to some reason, some cause.

I suddenly heard   the  conversations  between  Fear, Love, Sadness, Attitude, Heart and Mind. Though they tried that they are not heard somehow I managed to sneak in.

Love was as usual funky singing the song in the canteen loudly  “ ye reshmi julphen , hye sharbati aankhein”…..he made sure he was heard, everybody was enjoying it, he was teasing sadness who was just sitting in the corner reading the report on blasts. She was introvert from her childhood but yet opportunist to get the attention whenever she required.

While heart was enjoying the song by Love, Mind was just busy in analyzing don’t know what, he was pretending that he is doing something genius and would make difference to rest of people sitting around.

Attitude and fear had gone to take some snacks for all of them, they all were part of a group, really pulling each other’s leg always showing the importance but not meaning it.

Fear was the smartest person  among  them, he knew when to speak and when to be silent.

One fine day, when they all were drunk,attitude thought of playing a game with all of them,he made teams, Fear with sadness( sady was too attractive for fear!!, saat janam saath rehne ki kasamein khaa lit hi jaise),Love and heart ( amitabh and dhamendra in modern sholday!!) and he had himself paired up with Mind.attitude always had a respect for mind for his skills( Sachin and dravid)

They started playing  game  “ Truth or dare” whereby rotating the bottle depending on its direction one has to choose between truth and dare”

Bottle started spinning, first it stopped at love and heart team.

Truth or Dare, attitude asked!!

“Dare “shouted Heart (Love was clueless why why on the earth Heart did this!)

Attitude said “Go and speard yourself in all conditions, circumstances”

Love was clueless; he had to do what his teammate heart had put him into.

Love started being present in all conditions, for the starting phase he enjoyed the limelight, with time, he started to feel the pinch, since he was not able to be present all the time, he started pretending.

HE HAD TO BE GENINUINE WHEREVER NEEDED AND PRETENDING WHERE THERE  WAS  A NEED.

As a result, Heart was happy when he found love acting true to itself and sad when pretending.

Bottle started rolling again and it was fear and sadness’s turn

Sadness who always was introvert spoke” truth”!

Amazed by this action, Mind really clapped!

Mind said” you both Fear and sadness have to be together ( fear was happy ) and you cannot pretend, but we will have control over you, I appoint Love as observer.

Fear was stronger of the two, he told to sadness” let me do my work, I will make people weak, I wil force them to think again & again, I will control them, sadness who could hear the devilishness of fear was not in agreement, she didn’t like what fear was doing, she decided to play separately.

Next was the turn of Mind and Attitude, being the eldest, they were controlling Love, Heart, fear and sadness so as they can come in phases and turn by turn, their job was to not to allow anybody dominate.

THEY MADE SURE ALL EMOTIONS WERE TEMPORARILY PLAYING THEIR ROLE.

Suddenly I woke up, wondering what these emotions were up to and why did I hear their conversation! But somehow I really loved the characterization of these emotions!

But I had found my answer, Role of each emotion, and TEMPORARINESS.

Rest in my next blog, Happy Reading!
